Command:   bset
Handler:   do_bset
Min level: 61
Min posn:  any (dead)
Log:       always

Syntax:   bset (board filename) (command) (argument)
Example:  bset immortal.brd vnum 1200

BSET is used to set fields governing an individual board's operation.

Filename - filename to store the board's information (set first)
Vnum     - object vnum assigned to the board (see 'help boards')
Read     - the mininum level required to read the board
Post     - the minimum level required to post to the board
Remove   - the minumum level required to remove notes from the board
           NOTE: notes addressed to 'all' can be removed by anyone
Maxpost  - maximum number of posts the board can hold
Filename - filename to store the board's information
Type     - 0 = note board         1 = mail board

Board groups:  (example:  bset druid.brd read_group guild of druids)
read_group    - group that may read that board, regardless of level
post_group    - group that may post to that board, regardless of level
extra_readers - char. who may read the board regardless of their level
extra_removers- char. who may remove notes from this board regardless
                  of their level or membership in a reader_group

Syntax: Bset <board filename> <field> <value>
Syntax: Bstat <board filename> (same room as board needs no args)
 
BSTAT will show the current setting for the statted board.
 
BSET will set new values for a given board.
Correct FIELD values for Bset are:
  ovnum, read, post, remove, maxpost, filename, and type
  read_group, post_group, extra_readers, and extra_removers
  All boards will be type 1, except Nerif's mail board (type 2).
Action FIELD values include:
  oremove, otake, olist, oread, ocopy, opost, and postmessg
  These should be followed by the message to be sent to those
  who are at the board, but not performing the action (similar
  to mpechoaround). Postmessg is the only message that will be
  seen by the actor of a Bset action value.
